Carmarthen: The Druid Press: 1947. First edition with a gift inscription to his friend Sven Erik Tackmark. Tackmark was a Swedish translator, and the subject of another of Powys's books, "The letters of John Cowper Powys to Sven-Erik Täckmark." Original pale blue wrapper. Red boards with gilt titles. 188 pp.

Condition: The wrapper has chipping to the edges, with substantial loss to the top edge of the spine, but is still clean. Now held in archival wrap. The book itself is clean and tidy.
